Book Reviews
![]() I started to keep this weblog on August 19, 2002. Since then I have published 1880 postings and various longer texts. I have not set any big targets for this weblog. This is just a public notebook. During these six months I have published elsewhere about twenty articles, ten columns, and six book reviews. In about one third of these I have used ideas and material originating from this weblog. Thus I believe that keeping a weblog can boost your productivity as a writer (at least it doesn't seem to diminish the output). I wonder if other bloggers have similar experiences?

![]() Why Nerds Are Unpopular: "It's a lengthy but engaging writeup of that chamber of horrors we call high school and why being smarter than the average bear is more of a liability than an asset during that stage in life. It's food for thought for those of us who've already been there, done that and been stuffed into lockers by the football team and it should give some hope to those who are going through it right now."
